There are lots of samey food stands on Berwick Street during weekday lunchtimes, serving (something) in a wrap with salad. Mexican, Moroccan, and, in this case, falafel.
Of those I have sampled however, Jerusalem Falafel was the runaway winner. An enormous wrap (a good foot long) with 3 large falafel inside, as much salad as you think you could eat, and the usual sauces - for a fiver! You can upgrade for another pound and get a couple more falafel pieces, but you probably don't need to; this is one filling lunch.
The only thing stopping a 5-star review is the mess up in the ordering; I asked for the large, was charged for the large, but didn't notice that they only put the 3 pieces in my wrap until I got back to the office to eat. However, I didn't feel ripped off, as I said this was great value even at the extra pound.
There isn't exactly a choice in what you get, besides the salad and sauce, but what they give you is top notch. I will be back to see if the quality is consistent, as this may become my new favourite cheap lunch spot in Soho... read more
